Joe Flacco Has Support From Owner

Baltimore Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti said, "we have bigger fish to fry" than finding a replacement for quarterback Joe Flacco, who struggled in 2017. That may mean that Baltimore will pass on drafting a quarterback this year with their first-round pick. Flacco has never been attractive as a fantasy quarterback, but he was abysmal in 2017, throwing for just 3,141 yards with 18 touchdowns and 13 interceptions for a QB rating of just 80.4. Flacco didn't have much to work with in the passing game, but even if the receiving corps is upgraded, Flacco is no better than a midrange QB2 for fantasy purposes.

Joe Flacco May Not Be Trusted In Baltimore

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco is coming off of a weak 2017 season and the team may be looking for alternatives for the future. Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said the team will "for sure" consider drafting a quarterback. "When you have a veteran quarterback at this stage, it's the time you're looking for a young backup," Harbaugh added. The coach blamed Flacco's recent struggles with his health, and these comments certainly do not suggest the team is looking to replace him in the near future. Still, it is notable Baltimore is at the very least thinking about the future. Flacco averaged just 5.7 yards per attempt with 18 touchdowns and 13 interceptions this season.

Joe Flacco Expects Offensive Coordinator To Return

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco said he expects offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg to return in 2018. "Our relationship continues to grow," Flacco said. Hopefully that would be the case, especially after defensive coordinator Dean Pees announced his retirement. Mornhinweg isn't a very high-end assistant coach with a lack of creativity on his offenses, and it showed in Flacco's weak play in 2017. The 32-year-old quarterback had just 3,141 yards passing for a career low 5.72 yards per completion and 18 touchdowns to 13 interceptions. While Alex Collins is a promising young running back, the team will need to upgrade at receiver for 2018, regardless of whether Mornhinweg returns or not.
